F-100D Skins

[+Dave 2,322]

Well the contrast is still too strong IMO, the light green is too light. But it's just my opinion.

 

Well since it is fading of the aircraft, you can't really judge the contrast because everything sunfades differently.

Look how bad the sun faded this one.

Don't tell me the Danish were flying the Huns when they were super faded.

Its hard to say, those OD we had faded very quikly and not two aircraft faded similar, I have seen birds that's were allmost yellow in colour and some that was allmost grey with a greenish undertone

[+Dave 2,322]

They sure did. The French and the Turks flew some that were just as bad too.

Air France has got some dirty planes. Could their Huns be any dirtier?

Yes we did You can call it a adaptive camouflage

I don't know if this has been posted before, but you know the Hun did not like being painted in "flat" schemes. Around the engine the paint would burn off and on the rest of the plane it would peel off in large sections.

A bit different but I saw some photos of French Bearcats during the Indo China War that were about as mottled as one can imagine

Yeah I know, but I have some pics where the org paint faded to something like this. That paint we used was very bad, but hey I can make more which is different in shade

[+Dave 2,322]

You can hex edit the current drop tanks to use another bmp. Ping Sundowner, he is the king of hex editing droptanks.

[+hgbn 91]

Well that was very helpfull Thanks

[+hgbn 91]

Which is the best??? The lighter one or the one I darkened a bit view previous post to see the lighter

 

And the skin can be used as an Turkish aircraft too, just need to make other numbers

I like the first one best!

 

 

 

Waiting for upload!

[+Dave 2,322]

I like the darker one better.

[+Sundowner 4,818]

Put them both up mate.....

[+hgbn 91]

I can make them both, ones as an Danish bird and the other one as an Turkish, then all you need to do, if you like the one more than the other one is swap the bmp's
